This paper evaluated nearly 2500 colonoscopies done in a routine clinical practice setting, half with standard and half with high-definition colonoscopes. The study found a significantly higher adenoma detection rate with high definition, although this was only seen for small, low-risk adenomas.

The authors did not recommend for it to be used routinely.

This study, using new high definition confocal miniprobes demonstrated that confocal was significantly more accurate than state-of-the-art high-definition electronic imaging with NBI or FICE. These results suggest that p-CLE may be a valuable addition to the imaging armamentarium.
